When problem-agitate hooks work best

Use when the pain you solve is well-defined and emotionally charged — bad skin, slow workflows, embarrassing situations.

Test 3–5 of these against your existing winner. Keep the body and CTA constant, vary only the first sentence — that's the cleanest way to attribute lift to the hook itself.

Curiosity Hooks

Open a loop the viewer feels compelled to close. The strongest scroll-stopper on TikTok, Reels and Shorts when done well.

Problem-Agitate Hooks

Name a painful, specific problem your customer recognises in the first second. They keep watching because they need the solution.

Stat-Drop Hooks

Lead with a precise, surprising statistic. Numbers feel concrete and credible, especially when paired with visual proof.

Social-Proof Hooks

Lean on what other customers are saying or doing. Borrowed credibility is the cheapest way to overcome skepticism.

Direct-Promise Hooks

Tell the viewer exactly what they get in plain language. Works when the offer is genuinely strong on its own.

POV Hooks

Frame the video as a moment in someone's life. Native-feeling on TikTok and Reels because it matches how organic creators speak.

Question Hooks

Ask a tight, specific question your audience already wonders about. Engaging without feeling pushy.

Controversial Hooks

Stake out a strong, polarising position the audience didn't expect. Use sparingly — high reward but easy to misfire.
